Tom Ford has put an end to rumours that his long-term friend Carine Roitfeld will be joining him in a new collaborative venture, despite online rumours.

“Carine and I have no plans to work together at the moment, and it is nothing that we have even discussed, but of course I think she is brilliant and we are close friends so who knows about the future,” Ford tells The New York Times.

Roitfeld announced her decision to leave Vogue Paris on Friday after ten years of service.
